Review:

I remembered the first movie where his daughter is "taken", and though it didn't blow me away, I liked it.

This movie picked right up where that one left off basically.

It wasn't very exciting in the beginning, but it picked up. Lots of guns and blowing things up!!

Liam Neeson plays a bad ass C.I.A. agent that knows some really creative ways of escaping captivity. That alone made the film worth watching. Total genius I tell you.

The bad guys never stop chasing Liam either, so there is room in the end for a third film.

3/5
